Several key moments on the defensive side of the ball that steelers couldn't capitalize on where we used to in the past. This defense has major issues.

Worst defense in the league and we can't score against them.
7 points on a 1 yd drive. Our offense needs tds not fgs

7 UP

Look whos on the field. Mundy, Allen, Lewis? These 3 would not start on any NFL team. Polomalau is injury prone, to not have a suitable backup year after year is retarted.

Foote??? Foote couldnt even start in Detriot, and would be out of the league were he not with the Steelers. Here he starts.

Timmons??? career under achiever

Hood??? See above

Hampton?? well past prime

Worilds?? Well he is showing some signs of potential

Only players of note on the field are Ike and Harrison. And of those two Ike looked horrible.

Well injuries are part of the game. Next man up needs to be ready. You can fault the front office for not having better backups, but that is an argument for a different day. The players are out on the field now. Be ready. Allen totally let the team down on that bobbled interception attempt then totally blew his coverage on that slant deep middle to wright.

Ummm, he was 8 for 8, attempting longest fg he's ever made. How is that inconsistent?

When you have a defense that is so optimized that the absence of a couple of players cause it to start to fall apart then maybe the defense is poorly designed.

That is been my contention for years. Our defense as LeBeau wants to play it has become unsustainable because we cannot replace the talent because the "conversions" he requires are too hit or miss. I loved this defense 5-6 years ago but anyone who wanted to see it could see the cracks and holes developing a couple of years ago.

I hear you Oviedo. You've been pretty spot on with those criticisms these last few years.
